True beauty lies beneath the surface, Waterton National Park [OC] [2500x1667] - Author: VincentSchnablPhoto on Reddit
โGo and love someone exactly as they are. then, watch how they transform into the greatest truest version of themselves. when one feels seen and appreciated in their own essence, one is instantly empowered.โ

I fall in love with people that donโt love me back. It happens over and over. I pretend that Iโm strong. That itโs barely an inconvenience that their feelings for me arenโt even a fraction of what i feel, and that it doesnโt feel terrible when they donโt choose me when Iโd choose them over and over again. I pretend that every time I realise their feelings for me arenโt the same i donโt feel a gaping hole in my chest. I fall in love with people who donโt love me back and Iโm tired of pretending that Iโm not worn out from only ever loving and never being loved.

So one day I let my self and everything I held close to me go and said, โthatโs enough, thatโs enough for now.โ At some point you have to realise you are doing too much to be there for someone, that youโre fighting a losing battle. Sometimes, the next possible step you can take is to just stop. Leave them alone, let the idea of that friendship go, walk away. You never wanted to be โjust friendsโ with them anyway. Donโt ruin a good time you had with someone by prolonging it more than it should. Now Iโm not asking you to hate them, I say this with the understanding that there is love in letting go and that you may want to remember them for the beauty of it rather than waiting around for it to be bitter in your mind. And believe me when I say this, if it isnโt something thatโs bringing you joy anymore and it used to in the past, donโt make the mistake of sticking yourself out for them and watch it go wrong in every possible direction. Itโs not that youโre giving up, and itโs not that you shouldnโt try. Itโs just that you have to draw a line in between all the determination and the desperation. Itโs just that whatโs truly yours will be yours, and what is not, no matter how hard you try, will never be.
We met for a reason, either you're a blessing or a lesson.
hey! lets run away together, i know you want to do it. all you have to do is hold my hand and we can go anywhere our hearts desire.
๐ happy pride everybody! ๐
